I just received this re built angle grinder from U P S I plugged it in and it seems to be a powerful angle grinder considering it is a re built model, it looks like a brand new angle grinder, I have a welding shop in my garage and I have another Makita model 9557PB, the model 9557NB seems to be a much more powerful angle grinder, I have never purchased any re built power tools before so I am a little skeptical of how long this will last but if it lasts me for 2 years than I would consider this angle grinder PAYED for itself, I would recommend for anyone to at least consider to purchase reconditioned power tools, you just might save yourself some money in the long run

Great tool. Very good quality at a great price. Use to sharpen mower blades.

"refurbished" was kinda scary but I gave it a shot for the cost was enticing. I bought 2 of them. They held up very well. I use them daily in my shop. they don't run all day long but I do use them regularly and I lean on them pretty hard from time to time for heavy grinding.

This Makita replaced a generic 4 1/2" grinder which was OK and lasted11 years. The Makita angle grinder is far more powerful and the wheel is easily replaced. It works as good as it's 5 1/2" big brother. Have not used a cutoff wheel on this one yet so we'll see how that works.

Today, everything is made in China and this is no exception. The only thing Makita has over the rest of them (excluding a few high end German tools) is their parts (at least some of them) are made in Japan.
